Cycle


Why should matters rely on
This fertile soil and
escape the fading clouds
To descend upon the skies,
Like poison rain,
To the lonely sickened rivers
That flow to the centre of the earth?

And the thunder, and all evil messengers
Above our vulnerable heads-
Are we to wait to be swallowed,
To turn to putrefaction
To feed the ungrateful leaves of a tree?
